Sunderland 0 Coventry 4

Our pitch was soaked on Friday, did anyone else notice?

Just spoken to a Sunderland fan in the pub, he reckons if we do score first the whole stadium will shit themselves

Being ready for the prem is a myth, you need to replace basically the entire team to have a chance anyway and you’re always better off getting the money

If EMC is fit he should start and Wright up top. Otherwise, Simms and Wright left. We'll see how Sunderland want to play it. If they sit back then we should just focus on getting quality crosses in to the box, and you'd hope given our record that Wright, Simms or Rudoni will get on the end of one.

all we need is a 1-0 win and you want to start MVE, who dropped a clanger in the first leg, as a wide CB when he's never done it before? trying anything too drastic from the off is a recipe for conceding early and giving ourselves a mountain to climb - if Sunderland do get the 1st goal that's...

Eerily similar to 22/23 when our strikers dropped off and Hamer stepped up.

I agree re the game plan but I’m not sure how we looked knackered? We looked fine energy wise, just struggled as BTA was not able to compete for crosses in the air and Wright had a stinker. Rudoni arriving late was our only threat.

Not sure how you can say they looked fresh and we knackered when they had 10 men behind the ball at all times and it was basically attack v defence.

another swing and a miss from you there

been a real wet fart of a playoff run yet still the most exciting thing to happen to Bristol city in yonks

Since Lampard came in we're firmly in the top 4. I'd focus on 4-5 quality additions.

Just the 9 new signings then

Seems odd. I thought that kind of thing was agreed at the time, e.g. X extra years at £Y per week if the clause is met.

Sheaf - obvious Allen out of contract so makes sense Binks and Bidwell will have takers Simms & BTA - does both going mean we are looking at signing a new striker? Collins - who on earth is taking him? L1 team for free I imagine? Wouldn't say no to £3m+ for Eccles

Again, this makes no sense. Surely the triggering of a clause is covered under the existing contract, no need for a new one.

Don’t know why people think we need to go radical and play a team/formation we haven’t used before. Stick to the 433, probably bring Simms back in and see where we are after an hour. We only need to win by 1 to force ET/pens.

Roy Keane would disagree

Lorna is terrible btw
